Re: [orca-list] new Versions of Sonar are out



Ah okay so you have two other operating systems on the stick? or your
saying that you have run these others on the same stick? With Sonar it
is a hybrid iso image which means that if you were already running linux
you could use the dd command to copy the Sonar image over and it would
boot off of the usb stick. i'm wondering if the program you are using is
adding additional software to make the iso bootable and that is
conflicting. i'm not sure it's just a guess. I've booted into Sonar off
of my usb stick on 4 different computers.

I am using Yumi, the latest version, and putting it on USB.
I have the latest Vinux and an XP-like copy of Ubuntu on the stick as well, 
and they boot up okay.

hey Glen,

i'm sorry it didn't work out for you. maybe you could try the Sonar mate
version and see if that works. Are you  burning DVd's or installing from
a usb stick?

Hi,
I downloaded the 686 again and again, it will not boot.
Although I cannot see the screen well enough to read anything, no matter 
how
big it is, I can tell that it is still at the black screen.
That is the way it was when it did not boot before, and my son said that 
it
just had a blinking cursor.
But the control keystrokes did not work either.
Other distros do boot on this system, so I have to conclude that it is a
limitation with Sonar.
I was hoping it would work.

Hello,

yeah you can use the i686 iso. one thing you can try is maybe for some
reason your system is either coming up muted or the volume is very low.
So what you can do is press control and the letter m to unmute or press
control and the up arrow to turn the volume up.

Hi,
I have downloaded both the 32 bit and the 64 bit, of the recently offered
Sonar, and neither wants to boot on my system.
I have an Acer  laptop with an Intel dual core 1.7 GHZ with 2GB of RAM.
The 32-bit version reads as i686, while the 64-bit reads as X86.
The laptop normally boots to Vista, but I installed a 32-bit Vista on it,
it
came with Vista, but it was a corrupt install, and the recovery partition
did not exist any more, and the product key was worn off, and that is why
I
acquired it.
So I bought a 32-bit Vista for it, because it was cheap, and therefore, I
don't know if it originally had a 64-bit installed.
But I would think that the 32-bit i686 version would work.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.
Glenn
